52% of the world can’t access essential healthcare: we’re a business that does something about it. Join us.
reach52 is dedicated to reaching the 52% of the world without access to essential healthcare. The social-business model started by training health workers to run data-driven public health campaigns (funded by donors and B2B partners; with campaigns over 20 health topics run by over 16,500 health workers in India, Indonesia, Kenya, South Africa and the Philippines); but has now expanded to include distribution of affordable, high-quality essential medicine that lowers out-of-pocket health costs, and provides sustainable revenue to fund the public health activities. reach52 is now near-nationwide across India, and continues expansion across Asia and Africa.
Why work with us? We are challenging established business norms, with a new value proposition to build a socially-minded, sustainable models that can serve half the planet. You get to be creative, move fast, own truly important things, grow, learn, and help people. We’re not a charity, we are redesigning how affordable healthcare is delivered through truly innovative, efficient business and service delivery models.
We already work with over half of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies, a number of major NGOs, national and local governments, and have footholds in six markets. We have a great team, and we will be expanding rapidly over the next year/s and entering a number of new markets, particularly in Africa, and launching a number of new innovations and services that help us enable our mission at-scale.
